GLOBAL AIM

OPQC/NAS Learning Session

PDSA Report Out Results from January 26, 2015

PDSA’s: What change can we make that will result in an improvement?

Why Test?

• To reduce the risk/cost of implementing an intervention testing provides an opportunity to learn without severely impacting performance

• To increase (or decrease) your belief that

the change will result in improvement

• To learn how to adapt the change to other conditions in your environment

• To minimize resistance to implementation

What is Not a Test?

• Data collection • Implementing a solution • Rolling out an educational

program • Getting a form, policy,

procedure approved by the official committees

Keep it small!!

• 1 PDSA

• 1 Baby • 1 Day

Site 1 Partnering with a local Drug Court

• Provides: care coordinators, a legal aid attorney, a nurse case manager, a maternal fetal medicine physician, an addiction medicine physician , trauma-informed, and psychologist

• A referral could be implemented via sentencing or as part of probation criteria to help to ensure women get the necessary prenatal care.

PDSA- Site 2

• Plan: We plan to increase core team knowledge of community resources so we are better able to understand and articulate to front line staff those resources that are available to the mothers. We will accomplish this by 1-23-2015.

• KEY DRIVER- Connect with outpatient support and treatment programs prior to discharge.

• Do: Members of our OPQC team visited 1 of the treatment programs in the area to better understand our moms’ experiences with the program and to educate staff on the information learned. We went to a local methadone clinic on 1-23-2015.

PDSA- Site 2

• Study: After our first visit to one of our community partners, we found that those team members that attended had a much better understanding of the services that are available. Not all members of our OPQC core team were able to attend, so we presented the information to those who did not attend.

• Act: The group determined that our visit went very well. Not only did we learn more about its services, but we were actually able to educate the staff about Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome. Since we were able to easily convey the knowledge to those who did not attend, we scheduled an appointment with a second community agency. Appointment dates set for 2-20 & 2-26. We have already discussed a potential 3rd agency to meet with in March.

Site 3 PDSA: Community Resources

Key Driver impacted: Connect with outpatient support and treatment program prior to discharge.

PLAN: Maternity staff to build positive relationships with community resource clients to enhance their birthing experience.

Site 3 PDSA: Community Resources

PLAN: TASKS TO DESCRIBE THE TEST 1. Every other month scheduled tour by Perinatal Educator of Maternity unit with community agency clients. Question and answer session provided. 2. Purple crying and safe sleep presentation provided by Pediatrician after tour 3. Child birth class given by Maternity staff at community agency for clients with Finnegan assessments included in detail

Site 3 PDSA: Community Resources

PLAN: TASKS TO EVALUATE THE TEST 1. Patient rounding of community agency clients after birthing experience to obtain feedback of the Maternity staff and physician interactions prior to delivery 2. Maternity feedback on observation of relationships with community agency clients while in unit

PLAN: PREDICTION Increased trust will be seen in care provided by Maternity staff by community agency clients

Site 3 PDSA: Community Resources

DO: 1. The plan was carried out as described. 2. Observations and verbal feedback from community agency clients and Maternity staff supported the design of the plan. 3. Observation not part of the plan involved the increased compassion and interest the nursing staff began to show toward community agency clients beyond the basic nursing job requirements.

Site 3 PDSA: Community Resources

STUDY: The results of the plan matched the predictions.

ACT: Adopt the plan with goals set to implement and sustain the plan because of the “win – win” benefits for both Maternity staff and community agency clients.
